After walking along the street for a while, the surrounding field of vision began to broaden. Although Feng Yan had memorized the entire map of Yanyang City in his mind, he did not deliberately walk in any direction. There was no trace of anything at all. The purpose was wandering around, when a two-story building on the street caught his attention.
This small building is different from other buildings. The whole building is painted bright red, and lanterns are hung upstairs and downstairs. There are several Obasans at the door greeting the passing men, inviting them to come in and play.
Looking at the plaque with the three characters "Drunken Red Mansion", Feng Yan snapped his fingers and said to himself: Go in and have fun.
When he walked to the door, an elderly madam, whose face was almost caked with rouge and gouache, came over with a handkerchief.
"Hey, what a handsome guy. Come in and play quickly. We have many beautiful girls here."
Feng Yan touched his nose and thought: It seems that Lin Dong's reputation is not very famous in Yanyang City, or in other words, not many people know him in Yanyang City. The reason is the same. Generally, the vision of brothel madams is It is very open. Not only does she know the guests who often come and go here, but she must also know all the three religions in the world. At this time, she did not recognize Lin Dong, which means that Lin Dong definitely does not often hang out in this generation.
That's fine, it's convenient.
Thinking of Feng Yan, he half-heartedly said: "This is not good, I am a serious person."
When the madam heard this, she covered her mouth with her handkerchief and said with a smile: "Oh, sir, all the people who come to our place are serious people."
Upon hearing this, Feng Yan immediately said: "Then I'll be relieved."
Zuihonglou has a total of 2 floors. The first floor is the lobby. There are many round tables in the empty space. It is very lively at this time and is almost full. Many of the male guests are drunk and are still being drunk by the girls around them. liquor.
"The first floor should be similar to a nightclub-style place. These girls are being taken advantage of while selling wine and food desperately. After the customers pay, they take their orders."
After sitting down casually, the old bustard said: "Young master looked surprised, this is your first time here, you sit down first, I will call the girls for you, how many girls do you think are suitable?"
Feng Yan said: "Don't worry, how do you spend money on the second floor?"
This was the first time the Madam heard a customer say the word consumption, and she immediately felt fresh. She replied: "Sir, the girls on the second floor are much more beautiful than the girls on the first floor. Most of them are also on the upper floor." Those who have gone to private schools for a few years and know a lot about romantic affairs, and some of them are more elegant, like to go to the second floor to chat with these girls, and they can chat together. Most of them want to be quiet, but the price is..."
Feng Yan had a thought in his mind and took out a piece of silver he had just collected from a carriage outside the city from his luggage and placed it on the table. The madam's eyes widened when he saw the white silver, and he quickly put the money away and said, "Oh, Young Master, this old slave is really blind and blind, it turns out that Young Master is such a high-status person, so hurry up and invite me to the second floor."
After going up to the second floor, there is a wall at the entrance with 8 small rectangular signs hanging on it, 4 of which are turned over, and the other 4 are written: Zi Yan Qiu Jin Xiao Xiao Xi Yun.
The old bustard said: "Sir, these four girls are currently available. Which one do you think you would choose?"
Feng Yan pondered for a moment: "Which one is usually more lively? I don't like the cold one very much."
The madam barely understood the meaning of the word aloof, and she said: "Then Xiaoxiao, this girl is usually quirky and very good at pleasing people, and she will definitely satisfy the young master. "
The madam brought Feng Yan to Xiaoxiao's guest room and knocked on the door. A bird-like response came from inside: "Xiaoxiao is waiting."
After hearing Xiaoxiao's response, the madam smiled at Feng Yan and then withdrew.
Feng Yan pushed open the wooden door and saw a woman in green clothes sitting in front of the makeup mirror. After hearing the sound of Feng Yan coming in, she turned her head and hugged Feng Yan with a smile.
Feng Yan thought to himself: The goods on the first floor and the second floor are indeed different. Is this the true meaning of moving to the next level?
The Xiaoxiao in front of her was in her early 20s, with an extremely charming little face, delicate facial features, and light makeup. When she smiled slightly, the dimples on her face were revealed.
Feng Yan closed the door smoothly and sat on a stool not far from the door. Xiaoxiao got up and came to Feng Yan, poured him a glass of wine and said, "Young Master is new to me. I think this is your first time here, right?"
Feng Yan nodded and said, "Not bad."
Xiaoxiao: "The young master met Xiaoxiao the first time he came here. This is also a kind of fate."
Feng Yan nodded silently and didn't drink any wine.
Xiaoxiao just thought it was Feng Yan's first time in such a place, so she was a little nervous and said: "Young master, don't be too nervous, let's talk about something casually."
Feng Yan said: "I heard that the general is getting married to Miss Bai tonight. What do you think of this matter?"
Xiaoxiao sat down and held her chin, frowning her little eyebrows, with an innocent expression, but with a hint of melancholy: "What can I say? I am happy for them."
Feng Yan saw Xiaoxiao's appearance and said, "You don't look like you are happy for them."
At this time, Xiaoxiao stood up and looked outside the room mysteriously, then sat down and said, "Sir, you don't know something. Strange things have been happening in the General's Mansion recently. Both General Xiao and Miss Bai are behaving very strangely. "
Feng Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "Where did you hear the rumors?"
Xiaoxiao whispered: "This is not a rumor, sir. I have a sister who works as a maid in the general's mansion. Sometimes when she goes out to buy supplies for the mansion, she will come to my place to chat with me about old times. In fact, it is just Lala's daily life at my daughter's house. . As we all know, Miss Bai is an orphan who was taken in by the General's Mansion since she was a child. She became General Xiao's personal maid when she was very young. She and General Xiao grew up together and had a very good relationship. When General Xiao became an adult, he also made it clear that he was not Miss Bai. They had been living a very happy life without getting married. But about a month ago, one day General Xiao and Miss Bai went to the forest outside the north of the city to enjoy flowers. After half a day, the two came back, but their whole mental outlook seemed to be different. As if he had changed into a different person, General Xiao became taciturn, while Miss Bai changed from her gentle, considerate and calm personality to one that was restless and restless. Chickens often died violently, and the death was horrifying. Most of them were disemboweled as the cause of death. Everyone thought it was a prank played by a thief, so they squatted there for a few nights. Later, they discovered that it was Miss Bai who did it. General Xiao and Miss Bai were inseparable from before. It turned into just a nod when they met, without much exchange of words, as if the two of them were living their own lives. Young Master, let me tell you, who can catch this kind of sneaky behavior? If this comes out In the General's Mansion, others might think of Miss Bai...ah, Master, you won't tell others what I said, will you?"
Feng Yan received a large amount of information, digested it all in a few seconds and said: "Don't worry, gossip is a woman's instinct. According to what you said, the General's Mansion has not been peaceful in the past month."
Xiaoxiao held her cheeks in one hand, picked up a grape on the table and put it into her mouth and said, "Who says it's not the case? According to my sister, since General Xiao and Miss Bai became weird, there have been frequent reports from the General's Mansion in the middle of the night. The roar of wild beasts sounded like foxes...or something else, but it was very scary anyway. Some people also saw General Xiao often sitting in the yard meditating at night when the weather was nice."
Feng Yan nodded thoughtfully: "I was walking along the road and saw many people setting off lanterns. The moon in the night sky is also very round today. May I ask if today is the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Xiaoxiao said in surprise: "Master, don't you even know that today is the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Feng Yan finally said: "Do you know where General Xiao and Miss Bai went to enjoy the flowers a month ago?"
Xiaoxiao said cheerfully: "A hundred meters ahead from the north of the city, you can see a forest just outside the north of the city. In that forest, why do you ask this?"
Feng Yan stood up and said: "It's nothing, I have something else to do, let's just talk about this today."
